Grand Opening Biberist
On Saturday, 16 August 2025, we officially celebrate the opening of our new Padelta location in Biberist (SO) – which also marks the launch of the first national performance centre for padel in Switzerland.
In close partnership with Swiss Tennis Padel, we’ve created a central hub for training, competition, community, and the long-term development of the sport.
Our brand-new indoor facility, located at the historic Papieri-Areal, features eight padel courts, including four courts built to international competition standards, a large spectator grandstand, and a terrace with perfect views over the entire playing area. The space is rounded out by a cool bar with plenty of seating and a lounge area – a new social hub for the padel community to meet before and after matches.
Additional amenities include modern changing rooms and showers, a warm-up and cool-down zone, and co-working spaces – ideal for those combining sport, work, and lifestyle in one place.
What to Expect on Opening Day
We’re inviting everyone to join the celebration – whether you’re playing, watching, or simply soaking up the atmosphere. The entire day is about padel, people and shared energy.
